ok, so I have 215/45/18 and they are rubbing as pictured, what's next? This is with both rear wheels. I have noticed that the rear driver side wheel sits lower under load, so, as asked, what's next?

Bad struts or springs would be my guess.

I was guessing the struts, I'll have to see what my warranty covers...the springs look ok. I'll have it checked when I get a chance.

If either one is shot usually the other is too, unless you catch it early enough.

Check your bushings and wheel bearings.
